Description

Hi,
first of all thank you for your interest to my person! Currently, I am looking for a place to volunteer in Asia from December 2026 till mid of February 2027.
I spent many years learning yoga and other body and mind related practices in India. Nowadays, in love with kalaripayattu (ancient Indian martial arts).
I live yogic lifestyle (early to bed/early to rise, mostly vegetarian (eat eggs), doing my sadhana etc).
The other things I enjoy are photography, arts, nature and animals.
Long time ago I had an experience of volunteering through Workaway in an Indian school in Kerala, where I was an art teacher and photographer. Also I spent a year volunteering in the ashram in Russia as an yoga teacher and photographer/smm manager. Also, back in Russia I was volunteering for one spiritual organisation helping them with administrative work.
So, I have versatile experience, a mixture of body practices, arts, photography and administration.
What else? I am interested in ecological and recycling projects, love animals and kids. I am not a ‘party girl’ but appreciate to spend time in a good company. I used to take care about myself so I’m familiar with all housekeeping things, cooking and gardening.
I adore nature, hiking and travelling. I’m looking forward to start my new journey and meet new friends!

The Term art was explained to our team through actions and deeds. This is what we would like to comment about this wonderful lady. Chaos to Cosmos = disorder to order = nothing to something. These phrases shall be the minimum words and maximum could be experienced with her presence. The teachers and students learnt a lot from Ms. Irina. She can … read more

It was a great time at this school! The kids are just amazing, they made me feel happy every day. I worked as an art teacher and it was a great opportunity for me to try myself in this field. Thank you for a trust and help🙏. I was staying with the other volunteers in the separate house that is 10 minutes away from school. We worked approximately … read more
